Truly honored to have been invited to the
@goldhouseco x
@billboard Gold Gala Founders Party last night. What Gold House is building goes far beyond visibility. It is creating spaces where Asian Pacific talent is not treated as a niche, but as influence, leadership, artistry, and culture shaping the world around us. And as a creator who has immigrated from India to the US without any family here, started everything from scratch, to continuing to building a career in Tech and Fashion simultaneously, that means a lot to me personally 🫶🏼
For a night centered around heritage and modern gold, I wanted my look to reflect not only my own Indian roots, but the beauty of Asian Pacific craftsmanship as a whole. Every detail of this look was chosen with intention, respect, and admiration for the artistry Asian-Pacific communities continue to bring to fashion and culture globally ✨
From an Iraqi designer
@dana.asady , who along with a small team of artisans spent over 200 hours to create this stunning fully hand-embellished gown as a modern female interpretation of Knight, to the absolutely breathtaking heritage contemporary diamond jewelry by an Indian designer
@ritika.r.a from her brand
@ivarfinejewerly , to fully hand-embroidered shoes from another Indian designer
@aprajitatoorofficial , this LOOK for me was a way to celebrate the power craftsmanship from AAPI community. Cheers to the full female team including my amazing HMUA
@beautybynic and photographer
@shkytska for bringing 🥂
Still in a complete hangover from the fashion, beauty, energy, conversations, and inspiration of last night… and honestly, this is just the beginning. More coming soon on how this entire look and moment came together and what I learned from attending this prestigious event ✨
Thank you for having me
